What will there be to remember
When life has passed December
When they dig the hole and put you down
Was your life a cap or a crown
Where are the signs of mountains climbed
Where leads the trail you left behind
Did fate cast them into the sea
Buried deep the same as thee
What will there be to remember
When life has passed December
When they dig the hole and put you down
Was your life a cap or a crown
Laurels are worthless where daisies grow
When life has gone where the dark winds blow
Did you live for self and the pleasures of life
Or, choose God’s treasures sealed in Christ
